There is a traditional view that capital markets are dominated by men. In today's society, we will find that more and more women are playing important roles in the financial and economic markets, and this pattern has become more obvious in the past ten years or so. Through their own efforts, women are slowly taking root in the capital market. Today's investment and trading market is as fair as any other market, so women have more power to compete with men.
However, women and men are very different from reason to emotion, and it is inevitable to be compared in trading and investment. A large body of research shows that women are better suited to trading and investing than men. Women have many excellent qualities, including patience, enthusiasm and long-term vision, etc., and it is these qualities that have created the status of many women in the capital market.
It is estimated that 95% of the current stock market are men and only 5% are women. A survey of 2,000 families found that 55% of women know little about investment and capital markets in terms of understanding and grasp of investment knowledge. In addition, 42% of women have some knowledge, and only 3% said they are quite confident in the investment knowledge they have mastered.
Therefore, we can draw a conclusion that the primary obstacle for women to participate in the capital market is the lack of professional knowledge or lack of interest in the traditionally male-dominated arena. There is also a research case, about 300 investment bank interns and about 400 investment novices operate a trading simulation software, most of them lose money, which is normal. It is worth mentioning that among them, female traders lose less than male traders. This study shows that men are more likely to break through specific trading limits in trading.
There are vast differences between men and women when it comes to investing. Studies have found that most men are impatient, greedy, arrogant, or overly egotistical when it comes to trading. Women are more patient and cautious, they will consider risks and investments more, and avoid impulsive investment decisions. While men trade freely and do not think enough, women choose to be better at controlling emotions and behave more professionally.
However, it has also been argued that women are indeed more patient and have a longer-term perspective. However, in times of heightened market volatility, this advantage can also become a disadvantage, because too cautious may miss fleeting opportunities. Because the market is in a stage of high volatility, there is no time for traders to think about it at all. Only by responding quickly can we grasp profits. Men, on the other hand, are more sensitive to highs and lows in the market.
The word we invented is called trader, which is gender-neutral and can be used for both men and women. Regardless of whether a male trader or a female trader, trading methods and habits are always different. For many traders, profits and losses always alternate. However, no matter whether you are a male trader or a female trader, as long as you cannot maintain profitability, you will eventually be eliminated from the investment market. This is the eternal truth.
